Background
We need to maintain and restore our historic and grade listed buildings in the UK.
The government should extend the vat reclaim on materials currently this scheme is only available on new builds.
The current scheme requires a review.
I propose that materials used on refurbishment projects, for historic, heritage projects and grade listed
Buildings should allow VAT to be recovered.
This would help maintain our UK heritage.
